Two quick questions:

1) Is there a FAQ area for commonly asked usage questions on SI besides this forum?

2) How does one post to oneself, and how do you start a thread?

OK, here's an oldie but goodie...

I often have embedded html commands for bold and italics in my posts. The problem is, they disappear each time I edit. It's a pain to have to put them back in each time.

Yes, I know I can work around the problem by copying and pasting each time, but as I often edit my messages a half dozen or more times before I finally "submit" them, this is an unwieldy process for me.

Any chance of resolving this problem? Is it even on the "to do" list?

- Jeff

To All;

A must read for the technoscente who ride herd on this thread; in three parts.

Credit to Hiram Walker posting on the George Gilder thread as the source for this.

Serious and thought provoking stuff.

Brad, Great job on the earnings calendar facility!!!

Wish list addition: full-featured charting facility with TA indicators and historical database automatically corrected for splits and with news articles indicated on the chart such that the content of the articles can be accessed for reading. (Gasp.....!) Is there a service somewhere that would like to partner with SI for this?

We are implementing a new 30 day trial tonight. The reason for the free trial is to allow non-members a chance to fully explore SI, and to recruit them as new members.

We will also be giving away annual memberships to some of the members who create the best content.

Some of the anti-abuse improvements we've made from the last trial:

1) Duplicate aliases will not be permitted.
2) Every post by a trial member will be flagged prominently with "Trial Member"
